Why Advance Medical Directives Are So Important For Members of the Military

We recently came across a video that every member of the military and all loved ones of members of the military should take a few minutes to watch.

The video, which appears on the Air Combat Command’s ACCNEWSTV YouTube channel, does a fantastic job of explaining the value of an advance medical directive for all those who serve our country.

When you’re heading into combat, it’s pretty clear why you should designate a healthcare agent in the event that someone needs to make decisions about your care. But the video also highlights why an advance medical directive is important even if you’re not deployed.
